Replacing alternator
SOURCE: 1998 Nissian Altima Not starting
Nothing by either party was said about the starter. The battery and wires can all be in great shape, and if they are and the owner hears a clicking noise when trying to start it its a pretty good bet they may have a starter that's locked up.
One good 'ole trick on those starters. If you can reach the starter, a couple of sharp rapes with a hammer will have it starting again, then you know it time to replace the starter.

Yes. Have him purchase a Haines or Chiltons Manual at Auto Zone or similar store. I have changed 2 alternators on my 95 Altima in my time and I am not an expert mechanic. Also check out:

Pretty good primer for the novice.
I did not remove the belt all the way. Merely slipped it off the old alternator pulley and then slip the new alternator onto the old belt and then tightened/adjust the belt as needed when done.
Good luck.
